\nKARACHI:
\n<\/strong><\/p>\n

A Sindh High Court’s Appellate Tribunal has reinstated Pakistan Tehreeke-Insaf Core Committee member Makhdoom Fazal Hussain Qureshi’s nomination papers for two National Assembly seats in Hyderabad and Matiari, along with a Sindh Assembly seat in Matiari.<\/p>\n

Qureshi had submitted nomination papers for NA-216 (Matiari), NA-219 (Hyderabad) and PS-57, but they were rejected by the returning officer during the scrutiny process, prompting him to file appeals in the Appellate Tribunal.<\/p>\n

After thorough consideration, the tribunal, led by Justice Adnan ul Karim Memon of the SHc, approved all appeals, overturning the decisions of the returning officers and restoring Qureshi’s nomination papers in all three constituencies.<\/p>\n

The PPP has already nominated Makhdoom Jamil-uzZaman for NA-216, while PML-N’s Bashir Memon is also in the run from this constituency.<\/p>\n

If PTI issues a ticket to Qureshi, an interesting contest is anticipated. When contacted, Qureshi confirmed the reinstatement of his nomination papers and clarified that the party ticket is yet to be decided. He expressed his intention to run in the constituency designated by the party.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
